Notes

APC v.4 [283] p.309–311, included in the view_APC link above, contains an unusually detailed account of the Privy Council’s findings and order with regard to the failure of the Court of Chancery of Jamaica properly to defer to appeals taken to the Council. This entry is not specifically related to this case, but it appears a month later in the register and may lie in the background of this case.
